Church Leaders Roundtable

This final week of July we take the chance to talk about what advocating for those immediately around us looks like. Holly—a friend of Sara's and the CLR Podcast—talks to us about what those little changes look like, and the way that we can be advocates in the every day and mundane.

If you've been around churches long enough, you've probably been part of a sort-of “college course” that is taught out of a book and gives a lot of actually really good practices for personal finances. These practices are given as baby steps that you can work through on your way to being financially “liberated,” but unfortunately the real world doesn't usually work out the way this “course” prescribes. Stick with us as we go through and talk about why these steps are unrealistic, and some things we can do TODAY to take back control of our finances!Be sure to give us five stars and recommend us to your friends!Follow us to keep up to date on what's going on in our world!Twitter.com/TheCLRPodcastInstagram.com/TheCLRPodcastFacebook.com/TheCLRPodcastEmail us with any questions or comments, or to ask for resources we mention in this week's episode: TheCLRPodcast@gmail.comHosts:—Darren Calhouninstagram.com/heydarrendarrencalhoun.com—Kevin Coronadoinstagram.com/kev.coronadotwitter.com/kevcoronado92kevincoronado.com—Stacy Henderlong—Sara Nichole—Mixing and editing by Kevin Coronado.—Music provided by The ManyLearn more about them here:Website - https://www.themanyarehere.comPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/themanyarehereFacebook/Instagram/Twitter - @themanyarehereChurch Resources website - https://www.pluralguild.comGet music by The Many:Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2ZpUGMGiTunes/Apple Music: https://apple.co/3cR0AKCWebsite: https://pluralguild.com/music or https://themanyarehere.com/music

Content warning: mental, spiritual abuse is discussed in this episode. A brief mention of violence in a movie is also included here.Oftentimes we find ourselves not knowing how to handle our own trauma, much less someone else's. In our experience, organizations are even worse at this, which can truly cause damage. How do we navigate this? How do we see the signs of trauma, and what are we supposed to do with them? Why does knowing the answer to these questions even matter?Thankfully, we have each other to talk through this and learn from, in this week's episode.Hosts:—Darren Calhouninstagram.com/heydarrendarrencalhoun.com—Kevin Coronadoinstagram.com/kev.coronadotwitter.com/kevcoronado92kevincoronado.com—Stacy Henderlong—Sara Nichole—Mixing and editing by Kevin Coronado.—Music provided by The ManyLearn more about them here:Website - https://www.themanyarehere.comPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/themanyarehereFacebook/Instagram/Twitter - @themanyarehereChurch Resources website - https://www.pluralguild.comGet music by The Many:Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2ZpUGMGiTunes/Apple Music: https://apple.co/3cR0AKCWebsite: https://pluralguild.com/music or https://themanyarehere.com/music

Content warning: mental, spiritual and sexual abuse is discussed in this episode. Trauma can be a hard thing to understand, and especially in the church world. We expect things from leaders, and hope that churches take care of us when we're going through some of the hardest moments of our lives, but what happens when we're not taken care of?We explore this in this week's episode, as we work to deconstruct some of the experiences we've each experienced in our tenure in church leadership.Hosts:—Darren Calhouninstagram.com/heydarrendarrencalhoun.com—Kevin Coronadoinstagram.com/kev.coronadotwitter.com/kevcoronado92kevincoronado.com—Stacy Henderlong—Sara Nichole—Mixing and editing by Kevin Coronado.—Music provided by The ManyLearn more about them here:Website - https://www.themanyarehere.comPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/themanyarehereFacebook/Instagram/Twitter - @themanyarehereChurch Resources website - https://www.pluralguild.comGet music by The Many:Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2ZpUGMGiTunes/Apple Music: https://apple.co/3cR0AKCWebsite: https://pluralguild.com/music or https://themanyarehere.com/music

Get to know Stacy, Sara, Kevin and Darren as we kick off the church Leaders Roundtable podcast! We each come from very different backgrounds, and are all in different stages of life. Something that we have in common—and probably the most important thing—is that we each want to create a space where we can come together and talk about normally-taboo topics. This week, we introduce ourselves and give a bit of backstory about where we come from, and where we are now. We hope you join us and laugh along as we get to know each other a bit better.
